spread the word on your itunes app profile, your website, here, whatever, tell people to stop spending money on apps for 2 days and donate a buck to the Japan relief fund on the front of yahoo.com, apple wont let us market our apps for charity becuase its against their terms and conditions "they even stopped the ebay app from allowing donations" but that can't stop us from saving people a few bucks to make a difference!

    Great idea contrasthall! You could also keep your current price and put something in your App Description stating that all proceeds for this game made this weekend will go to Japan, and then just donate your proceeds at the end of the weekend. Just a thought.

    I would love to but apple forbids it which is kind of a dirty move and yet a safe business move...

    Yeah not to rag on charity but one is enough. Can we get a sous-chef to merge the two?

    i apologize i didn't realize so many people checked different categories, i've been trying to hit twitter "even though i don't know how to use the damn thing" and every other spot i can today, just trying to spread the word - not be annoying.

    Most people don't check any categories since basically every post shows up on the main page of the forum regardless of the category. the marketplace is about the only one that doesn't show on the main page.

    So Apple forbids us from stating we'll give proceeds to charity? In that case I'll remove the verbage from my pages... but will still do it.
